  • imakeroads : Equality in marriage for homosexuals does not just benefit homosexuals, it benefits the entire society. My wife of twenty some years figured out that she was repressing her true orientation as a lesbian. If she could marry her partner, they both could check the box "married" on their 1040 form, and that would legally end my obligation to pay her spousal support (aka alimony). But NOOOOO. They can't get married, so they cohabitate and live as if they are married, and I still pay alimony. I've been a nice guy and allowed a "legal separation" to linger so she can continue to be on my health insurance, but if she could get married, she'd get better health insurance from her partner, who is a veteran; but instead...I'm still technically "married" and can't get on with my life to remarry my fiance. This situation is preventing me from having a "marriage between a man and a woman"...so I'm cohabitating with her. Do you see how non-recognition of my 2-b-x's relationship as a marriage is hurting the "marriage between a man and a woman?". I mean, come on! Get off your homophobia and treat everyone equally. It is not marrying your dog, it is not marrying a third person...stop with all of those lame comparisons. Once upon a time we didn't allow marriage between two races. Thomas Jefferson had a common law marriage with a black woman. Get with Canada and other civilized countries and recognize that allowing marriage between two loving human beings, regardless of gender, is the moral and holy right thing to do, even if government really should stay out of the whole thing like others are saying. Unfortunately, the government has that damn 1040 form with it's "filing status" definition. Will you add a box that says "domestic partnership"? I don't think so. So the only solution to my problem is to allow marriage between two adults, regardless of gender.
  • seatwist : This is not the belief of just a few. It is the majority request of Americans to have it defined as marriage between one man and one woman. We are the voters asking for this law. Congress did not sit down one day and decide to change history. It is the voters who have been pressuring congress to pass a law.

  • Anonymous : I am interested in H. R. Bill 4137 as I have three grandchildren "bothers and sister" that graduated in May 2008 and have approximately $20,000.00 debt each. Surely they can qualify for some help. What are the qualifications?
  • salaud : What a crock. I will need more lube with the peer-to-peer part to begin thinking about the merits of the loan things.

  • Freedom2Fascism : Welcome to Fascism American style...slipped right in the back door, via 911....that's all folks!
  • Anonymous : This is just a waste. There is no possible way to prevent terrorism on our soil no matter what precautions we take. If you really want to stop home grown terrorism than you have to leave the civil liberties of the people intact, and leave it to the people to guard against it. Remember people the D.C. snipers appeared to be uncatchable by the authorites. The only reason why they were caught was because the authorities gave the PEOPLE information on what they were looking for, and it was a repairman that spotted the vehicel that the snipers were using to get around in. The authorities only reacted on the information and arrested them. We the people have to be the ones to prevent terrorism not the government. By allowing them to pass this it only opens the door to our civil liberties to be infringed. It will start off as a study then turn into legislation that bases it off of what they find. National wire taps, e-mail screening that ques to certian phrases, and ( yes this is going to sound like a back woods hillbilly ) stricter backround checks on firearm purchases ( maybe restrictions on what calibers, lengths, and types). This bill is absolutely a waste of our time and money to pass.

You know how it’s common knowlege that most appeals aren’t successful? Well, if you were a pro-se petitioner in Louisiana for the last 13 years, you knew that you wouldn’t win. Why is that? Because the Chief Judge of their Court of Appeals directed his clerk to summarily deny all appeals from pro-se petitioners without circulating the appeal to other judges. The clerk, ridden with guilt, committed suicide earlier this year and left a note confessing everything. This immoral and apparently illegal policy was in place until Jerrold Peterson, the staffer charged with implementing it, blew his brains out in May of last year. Peterson was driven to it in part, his suicide note suggested, by guilt over the nefarious tasks the judges made him perform. In his note Peterson explained how the court gave indigent appellants the bum’s rush. Although every criminal writ application is supposed to be reviewed by three judges, he was deputed to winnow out any that had been filed pro se and arrange for their automatic rejection. Thus were an estimated 2,500 appeals deep-sixed without any judicial consideration whatsoever. Now, facing public embarassment and possible ethical violations, the Louisiana Supreme Court has stepped in and asked…get this…the same appellate court to look at the appeals again. Note that they did not ask the Court to conduct an investigation into this practice, but simply to consider those appeals that were so summarily denied. Because, if we placate the defendants with another cursory look at their appeals, we can sweep the ethical violations under the carpet. At first this whole thing seemed rather odd to me. After all, how is this even possible? Here’s how: Edward Dufresne, Chief Judge of the Fifth Circuit, took charge of pro se appeals in 1994. He then had Peterson prepare rulings denying writs for all of them and signed off “without so much as a glance,” according to the suicide note. “No judge ever saw the writ application before the ruling was prepared by me,” Peterson wrote in a second suicide note to the Judiciary Commission. The rulings also bore the names, though not the signatures, of judges Marion Edwards and Wally Rothschild. Neither Edwards nor Rothschild had any clue as to what was in the applications, or even knew that they had been filed, according to Peterson. So you’ve got one complicit judge and maybe three. But there are 5 more on that court. What of them? Are we to really believe that these 5 (or 7) other judges never once questioned the stark absence of pro-se appeals? Particularly in Louisiana, whose system has the following characteristics: * About 90 percent of criminal defendants in Louisiana are indigent. * Louisiana only provides post-conviction legal aid in death penalty cases. Everyone else must either hire a lawyer, find a lawyer to handle their case pro bono, or handle the appeal themselves. Obviously, most have no choice but to opt for the latter. * One criminal defense lawyer in Louisiana told me that if you’re convicted of murder in Louisiana and you’re innocent, you’re actually better off getting the death penalty. At least then you’ll get a team of lawyers, investigators, and experts to help with your appeal. This from a state whose criminal justice system was already crumbling. It’s hard to believe that people such as Judge Dufresne take an oath to uphold the law and to prove equal protection under it. Disbarment may be enough, but only barely. Justice delayed is no justice at all. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ THE SMOKING GUN LINK TO AMERICA'S JUDICIAL INJUSTICES BEING INFLICTED ON POORER AMERICAN'S ! *********************************************************** http://www.nola.com/timespic/stories/index.ssf?/base/news-0/1223616107256210.xml&coll=1 ************************************************************ lawyersforpooramericans@yahoo.com (424-247-2013)

Since our US Congress has never afforded poor prison inmates federal appeal legal counsel for their federal retrials,they have effectively closed the doors on these tens of thousands of innocent citizens ever being capable of possibly exonerating themselves to regain their freedom through being granted new retrials. This same exact unjust situation was happening in our Southern States when poor and mostly uneducated Black Americans were being falsely imprisoned for endless decades without the needed educational skills to properly submit their own written federal trial appeals. This devious and deceptive judicial process of making our poor and innocent prison inmates formulate and write their own federal appeal legal cases for possible retrials on their state criminal cases,is still in effect today even though everyone in our US judicial system knows that without proper legal representation, these tens of thousands of innocent prison inmates will be denied their rightful opportunities of ever being granted new trials from our federal appeal judges!! Sadly, the true US *legal* Federal Appeal situation that occurs when any of our uneducated American prison inmates are forced to attempt to submit their own written Federal Appeals (from our prisons nationwide) without the assistance of proper legal counsel, is that they all are in reality being denied their legitimate rights for Habeas Corpus with our US FEDERAL COURTS and will win any future Supreme Court Case concerning this injustice! For our judicial system and our US Congressional Leaders Of The Free World to continue to pretend that this is a real and fair opportunity for our American Middle Class and Working Poor Citizens, only delays the very needed future change of Federal Financing of all these Federal appeals becoming a normal formula of Our American judicial system. It was not so very long ago that Public Defenders became a Reality in this country.Prior that legal reality taking place, their were also some who thought giving anyone charged with a crime a free lawyer was a waste of taxpayers $$.
